  • Tony Adamle: Doctor of Defense
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 24, No. 3 (2002) Tony Adamle: Doctor of Defense By Bob Carroll Paul Brown “always wanted his players to better themselves, and he wanted us known for being more than just football players,” Tony Adamle told an Akron Beacon Journal reporter in 1999. In the case of Adamle, the former Cleveland Browns linebacker who passed away on October 8, 2000, at age 76, his post-football career brought him even more honor than captaining a world championship team. Tony was born May 15, 1924, in Fairmont, West Virginia, to parents who had immigrated from Slovenia. By the time he reached high school, his family had moved to Cleveland where he attended Collinwood High. From there, he moved on to Ohio State University where he first played under Brown who became the OSU coach in 1941. World War II interrupted Adamle’s college days along with those of so many others. He joined the U.S. Air Force and served in the Middle East theatre. By the time he returned, Paul Bixler had succeeded Paul Brown, who had moved on to create Cleveland’s team in the new All-America Football Conference. Adamle lettered for the Buckeyes in 1946 and played well enough that he was selected to the 1947 College All-Star Game. He started at fullback on a team that pulled off a rare 16-0 victory over the NFL’s 1946 champions, the Chicago Bears. Six other members of the starting lineup were destined to make a mark in the AAFC, including the game’s stars, quarterback George Ratterman and running back Buddy Young.

  • Pro Football's Doctor Alumni
    PRO FOOTBALL’S DOCTOR ALUMNI by Stanley Grosshandler, M.D. [Condensed from Rx Sports and Travel, Sept./Oct., 1970.] Pro football is a popular form of entertainment, both in person and on the tube. It provides millions of Americans with an escape from boredom, an opportunity to cheer for a home-town aggregation, and a means of relaxation, but it really has few other useful social consequences, right? Well, not quite. One pro football byproduct that receives little consideration from football buffs is the opportunity the professional game provides young men to pursue medical or dental graduate studies and ultimately to become physicians and dentists. Consider some of the players whose football salaries have put them through medical or dental school. Dr. John Brallier, a dentist from Latrobe, Pa., was one of the first professional players; he received $10 per game as a teenage quarterback about the turn of the century. Another dentist, Dr. John B. (Jock) Sutherland, gave the pro game a terrific boost in 1940 by leaving the University of Pittsburgh to coach the Brooklyn Dodgers of the N.F.L. Sutherland had been a highly successful coach at Pitt and later coached the Steelers to the best record in their history. Mal Stevens, a New York orthopedic surgeon and coach at N.Y.U. was the first coach of the Brooklyn club in the All-America Football Conference. The Chicago Bears have their own medical alumni club. Glib Papa Bear, George Halas, has convinced some mighty fine players that they could pursue their medical/dental education while pursuing footballs.

  • 1950 - a Landmark Year
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 14, No. 1 (1992) 1950 - A Landmark Year by Stan Grosshandler The 1950 season was truly a landmark year and could even be considered the true beginning of the modern era of the National Football League as it encompassed many factors that had tremendous influence on the league. The decade that followed has been termed "The Golden Age of Pro Football." 1950 got it off and winging. On January 20, the Rules Committee allowed unlimited substitution which was destined to totally change the character of the game. The dissolution of the All- American Football Conference brought three new franchises into the league: Cleveland, San Francisco, and Baltimore. The first two were destined to be among the most successful sports franchises in history. With the Browns came Coach Paul Brown, perhaps the most innovative coach the game has ever seen. His philosophy, theory, and teaching techniques influence football coaching at all levels to this very day. Now all the best players would be concentrated in the NFL. These included a number of players from defunct AAFC teams and a whole cadre of well-trained recent college grads whose careers that had been disrupted by war. Ex-GI's who'd entered college in 1946 were now eligible for pro football. And of course, there was the usual fine crop of ex- collegians whose careers had passed uninterrupted from high school to college and now to pro ball. Undoubtedly, more talent was present in the league in 1950 than ever before. Television for the first time began to wind its tentacles around the game, as the Rams contracted to show all games on television including home contests.
